Draft Grade — Ravens
Overall

FutureB-
The Ravens fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B. There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Ravens started one anyway for Cedric Gray, 33 picks ahead of schedule. No fireworks, but a solid B.
The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The Smith steal is the beam this whole class leans on.
That tight end hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick36
Rnd2
Chop Robinson
No edge and no loss on Chop Robinson in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. It fills a real need, too.
Pick47
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
They let Xavier Legette come to them and pounced at pick 47. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick67
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
They paid sticker price for Christian Haynes in pick No. 67, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick93
Rnd3
Michael Hall Jr.
A reasonable price with a little left over, Michael Hall Jr. in Round 3, Pick 30. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick102
Rnd4
Ray Davis
They liked Ray Davis enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 102. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick103
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at slot 103 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick108
Rnd4
DJ James
By-the-book stuff, DJ James at pick No. 108 squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick112
Rnd4
Javon Foster
A reach for Javon Foster in the 112th pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick131
Rnd4
Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis in the 131st overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick134
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kris Abrams-Draine at Round 4, Pick 34 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick137
Rnd5
Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith at slot 137 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick140
Rnd5
Jaylin Simpson
They jumped the gun on Jaylin Simpson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick145
Rnd5
Austin Booker
A real head-scratcher, Austin Booker in the Round 5 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick154
Rnd5
Jaylen Wright
They went early on Jaylen Wright in pick 154, and the value did not follow. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick160
Rnd5
Javion Cohen
The board had Javion Cohen higher than Round 5, Pick 24, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick172
Rnd5
Roger Rosengarten
A straight-up fair deal on Roger Rosengarten at slot 172, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick195
Rnd6
Braiden McGregor
They reached a country mile for Braiden McGregor at pick 195, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
